KUALA LUMPUR: The Allianz Road Rangers Rumble held a series of challenges in five locations across Malaysia, testing contestant’s speed at changing a real tyre in the fastest time possible while raising awareness on the importance of roadside assistance. The five qualifying rounds took place from September to October in the Klang Valley, Kuantan and Johor Bahru, while the Grand Finale took place in MyTOWN Shopping Centre on October 28.

Mohd. Radziman took home first place in an obstacle course featuring seven touchpoints which are based on the Allianz Road Rangers’ highest safety standards. Mohammad Farid came in second place while Leong Tian Loon took home third place.

The Allianz Road Rangers is insurer Allianz Malaysia Bhd’s roadside assistance service for comprehensive policyholders of their private car insurance. With a fleet of tow trucks that respond to emergency calls 24 hours a day, policyholders can rely on the Allianz Road Rangers for on-the-spot quick repairs or safe and reliable towing services, if needed.

“Typically, your worries are compounded when tow truck operators approach you aggressively with suggestions for workshops you’ve not heard of.

If it requires towing, we’ll get it sent to a reliable workshop so you don’t have to break a sweat,” said Allianz deputy chief sales officer Sazali Rahman.
